I have a stable for now 8mm x 14 mm AC; diagnosed in Sept 2010. I'm seeing Dr. Gidley at MD Anderson and for now the tumor is not growing at a percievable rate. I'm still working on the big T and have had it get better with Chiropractic treatment for about 12 hours, 3 diff times. However, providers were all different and cannot duplicate. The focus of my throbbing which translates to rining is my left jaw hinge point. I've been told I have distolized chondiles (spelling?), which means the jaw is bone on bone at times and always irritated. So, although I have T I'm working on it with bite guards provided by dentist that specialize in TMJ.
So, here is the question: Although these providers are well meaning, I wonder if there are specialist that work with ACs and TMJ issues (mine do not). I'm in Oklahoma; does anyone have a line on a good TMJ Dr. with AC experience?
Thanks and bless all of you,
Dale
